Fund Raiser for The UC Davis School of Medicine: Flying Samaritans

The UC Davis Flying Samaritans student organization is holding a fund raiser to support medical students traveling to Baja California to operate a free monthly clinic for the severely underserved populations of migrant workers. The event features don Miguel Ruiz MD, author of "The Four Agreements" and "Mastery of Love", who will be speaking on:

Spiritual Science: The Search for Truth “Pure Science is a true religion without any dogma. Pure Science requires great dedication and faith in the processes, while remaining objective to the outcome. This is the process of seeking truth and striving to understand it once found. Pure Science requires us to look outside of what we believe is true, to find and prove what is really true. This inquiry can only be successful when done with significant amounts of curiosity, skepticism and inspiration. Pure Science and True Spirituality are ultimately one and the same; the methodical pursuit of truth, through, and in spite of, the knowledge we currently possess.”

The Flying Samaritans is a non-sectarian, non-profit organization of small clinics throughout Baja California, which provide free education, medical, dental, and vision services to rural populations who would otherwise have no access to care. Medical students play a vital role in this model by expanding the patient capacity of the limited physicians available. All proceeds will go directly to offsetting the ~$250 transportation and lodging costs for each medical student traveling to volunteer at monthly clinics serving migrant workers in the small, isolated, agricultural town of Los Pinos, BC, Mexico, 150 miles south of Ensenada on the Pacific coast. https://www.flyingsamaritans.net/Web/Sams/default.asp?
